Common Cause Minnesota Joins Amicus Brief to Restore Voting Rights
Yesterday, Common Cause Minnesota joined Minnesota Second Chance Coalition and the League of Women Voters of Minnesota in requesting to file an amicus brief to support the full restoration of voting rights in the Schroeder v. Minnesota Secretary of State case before the State Supreme Court. The brief asks the Minnesota Supreme Court to declare the practice of disenfranchising members of the community with prior felony convictions—more than 55,000 Minnesotans—unconstitutional.
